    Very good game. And yes, tricky to get good at...That's the beauty of it though - plenty of depth. Most can pick it up, throw out the odd special but then there are added layers right up to people knowing frame data and taking top finishes in tournaments.

    Lads in the fighting game forum might be worth talking to. Also, check streetfighter.ie for upcoming tournaments. If you're in Dublin, there are casual sessions too.

    Super Carpel Tunnel Syndrome the game as I call it.
    This edition of the franchise is really hard on the hands so much more than the other editions, I should know I've been playing Street Fighter since 1993 and I own most versions of it.
    When playing online it becomes really frenetic and damages my poor gnarled fingers greatly... Still though I think its a great game, wish I was 16 again so I could find the time to master it

    If you use an arcade stick that should help with gnarled hand syndrome.

    Exactly! The problem is that you're playing on pad, not that the game is bad on fingers.
